Default Windscreen cracked :( Has anyone used Highway Glassline?

As above. My windscreen on the S2 has cracked and the insurance policy is pushing me towards "Highway Glassline" or they will only pay £100. Has anyone used them and have a good or bad tale to tell?

Cheers for the reply. Yeah it should be simple enough, I was wondering what the turnaround time would be. I'm guessing these windscreens aren't common any more...

thanks

i had to use it last year for my e30, apart from a 2 day wait for the correct screen, it was a case of handing over the excess and job done, the guy was very professional and respectful of my car........

I had to have mine replaced in the cossie last week as some fucker threw a stone filled snowball at it when i was out in the snow

I'm with Greenlight and they use Highway glass... But they contract out Autoglass to do their jobs... Also ask to have it replaced at home. As they will do it when is good for you at no extra cost than taking it to them
